Abstract

The asiatic acid, a triterpenoids isolated from Centella asiatica was used to delineate its inhibitory effect on
acetylcholinesterase (AChE) properties, excitatory post synaptic potential (EPSP) and locomotor activity.
This study is consistent with asiatic acid having an effect on AChE, a selective GABAB receptor agonist
and no sedative effect on locomotor.
